Some time ago, it was advised that ACU would soon be moving away from Qualtrics as its organisational survey tool. Since then, extensive assessments have been undertaken to ensure the best way forward was selected based on user needs, timing and financial considerations.
Taking these things into account, the result of this investigation is that ACU will continue using Qualtrics for at least another year. This will be revisited at a later date, and further advice will be forthcoming if there are to be any changes to the ACU survey tool.
This means that you can continue to use Qualtrics as normal for the foreseeable future. Any changes in this area will be communicated with sufficient time to respond.
As Qualtrics functions best as a survey tool, not a data storage tool, it is recommended that survey data be exported from Qualtrics once the survey is complete and data analysis tools are no longer required.
Further advice on the storage of data can be found in ACU’s Research Data Management Policy.
If you have any questions about this, please contact qualtrics.admin@acu.edu.au.
